Hya Guys,

If you have seen the video we would like to know your thoughts on the new rest so that we can pass them onto the manufacturer.

I like the improved portability.
What is the price difference between the new one and old one?

Beside the price when will it be available in the U.S. ?

Hi, seb here. I will soon start the production after I received enough inputs & critisms on this rest. So keep giving inputs/critisms to make it even better.
Exact price is not determined yet because it's still in prototype stage, but I will soon know/calculate it....seb.

I own and have been shooting one of your rests for 2yrs and am satisfied,I have added a 5" piece of s/s/ to the front section of the handle and it has helped smooth up the up-down side to side function of the handle. The rifle wgt adjustments are a pain to get set-up.I also would like to see the top ear adjustment on the front bag be more concentrated towards the bottom of the ears where it comes into contact with the sides of the rifle stock closer to the bottom rather than at the top of the ears.As far as all the adjustability for different stock widths as long as it don't take away from one size or the other no big deal. Just my 2 cents and I am by far an expert.Would be interested in another one at a reasonable price?

The AccurateShooter.com unboxing and review of the SEB NEO prototype joystick rest is now up in the Daily Bulletin. There are lots of photos, and two videos to watch.

I shot off the rest. It is VERY smooth in both vertical and horizontal planes. It supports weight well so the pure vertical travel is not jumpy as with some other joystick units. Very nice rest, that is also very versatile.

Thanks you, gentlemen. Especially to you PM for your time to make such a GREAT review on the Neo...

.............

I would like to thanks to some friends that gave me inputs / critisms before this.
I found & imported directly the "Fluro" bearings after I received several samples from a friend.
I had input to make the tension adjustment to be more easier, or even without any tool to adjust.
I had input to make the rest more compact for travelling.
Etc.... Just to mention a few.
Without your inputs / critisms, this rest wouldn't be like this!
Still, I received some more good inputs in the last few days.

On the other side, I feel that I have FAILED to make this rest to be more affordable / cheaper than my regular rest!
I won't "defend" myself here, however I have tried my best before this. I have made several/different models & configurations, different/cheaper materials etc before, but I came to the conclusion that I must make a totally different rest, a more user friendly rest, and the best of the bests coaxial rest. Not a "so so" front rest. That was my goals.

So my sincere apology here to anyones that have hoped the new rest to be more cheaper than the regular rest!
In a glance, only by looking the photos or videos, I'm sure that you can understand WHY it is more expensive than the regular rest.
Yes, it has many/more precision parts, the use of expensive stainless steel SUS 420J for the rack gears & pinion & center shat, aircfraft grade alum 7000 series, enhanced features/details etc.
You can ask other people to make a rest like this in the price range of $ 675 - 750, if you think it's an over statement / over price. Let me know if I'm wrong!


In addition, again I'm sorry for the long delays!


Best Regards,
seb.
